Union Home & Cooperation Minister Shri Amit Shah launched the “CAPF eAWAS” web portal in New Delhi
Central Armed Police Forces have always been a strong pillar in every aspect for the country’s internal security
Under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, a new era of development has begun and India is becoming a global production hub, CAPF personnel who ensure internal security have a big role in this
The Government led by Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi believes that it is its job to care for the families of Jawans, so that Jawans who guard our borders in difficult circumstances, can do their work without worries
Prime Minister Narendra Modi is concerned about Jawans and especially their families and has taken many unprecedented decisions in the last 8 years
Housing Satisfaction Ratio (HSR) was around 33 per cent in 2014, which is 48 per cent today, launch of CAPF e-Awas portal will increase HSR by 13 per cent without construction of new buildings
Government is confident that with these meaningful efforts by MHA, the HSR will be 73 percent by November 2024, which will be a great achievement
Therewas system in the CAPFs that only the Forces for which houses had been constructed would be allotted to their personnel, this created several thousand vacant houses, now this will be changed by the e-accommodation portal and vacant houses will be available for personnel of other CAPFs
e-Transfer Software has been created to bring transparency in transfer of CAPF personnel, now ITBP and CISF have started using this software on an experimental basis
So far, about three crore saplings have been planted in the MHA’s plantation drive, however it is the responsibility of senior officers to inculcate an attachment in the Jawan’s for saplings they have planted, this attachment will be life changing for them/PIB
